Quote:Was Adam barred from Heaven? what about Isaac, Jacob, abraham or any of his sons?Jewish adam or christer adam? The question can be asked again and again for each mythological character as an exercise in cultural anthropology..but the answer remains the same in all cases. No one is barred from heaven..there would have to -be- a heaven for anyone to be barred from it......and there isn't.
Short minded and foolish indeed.
Quote:So how do these non Christian enter Heaven?It's not my job to retcon your silly fairly tale so that each disparate part fits with each new revision and that neither of those two things ever rubs against the next batshit thing what might come to -your- mind. Perhaps early christers should have thought of that when they were cobbling together the magic book? Not, mind you, that I think it would have made a difference. It was the opinion of those same people that the jews were hellbound christ killers fallen from grace...so?
In any case, it makes for an interesting question of christology and how people choose to interpret their myths and legends. Interesting in the sense that your answer might be illuminating. When, in your sects official opinion, did jesus become christ? Of the four majority opinions on that question, only one of them would have allowed any chance of those people getting into any "heaven" through christ, and even that position will not have allowed for any such admittance if said jew didn;t recognize jesus as god, which said jew would not do, because jew. More amusingly in the case of adam...lol. "You're god? Stop bullshitting me. I know the guy, I used to be his gardener."
Gee, what do you call a person who accepts christ as lord and savior and then get's into heaven? I'll give you three guesses...
